When Ted and Sandra Beckham welcomed David Robert Joseph, he was the only boy among three children. The second-born Beckham child lived on the outer edge of a London farmland where his father worked as a kitchen fitter and his mother a hairdresser.

The family relocated to the area from Leytonstone when David was still a child. The future soccer star attended Boy Scout camp, had frequent visits with his grandparents, and was a regular churchgoer.

Ted helped coach a youth soccer team David joined when he was eight. Two years later, the future star had scored 100 goals, and at age 11, he'd a national skills competition which got him noticed.

When he was 12, Manchester United contacted his parents for the first time, and that's how he became a global star. Although they lived among Tottenham and Arsenal fans, David's parents supported Manchester United.

The love that David received from his parents endured into adulthood, and over the years, he's been able to reciprocate it. He's gone above and beyond to make his mother feel treasured.

David was keen on being in the kitchen and frequently cooked for his wife, Victoria, and their children. The soccer player once confessed that he was obsessed with making a perfect risotto and shared the secret of stirring while adding the ingredients constantly.

The aspiring chef said he loved cooking because it relaxed him and his children enjoyed it too, especially when he made Milanese risotto with saffron. The star was so passionate about cooking that he even foraged his ingredients!

In 2020, he shared a social media photo where he was kneeling with a basket full of herbs; however, this time, they would be used for a fall wreath. The year before, he shared an image of him, his daughter Harper, and his mother working together to prepare a meal in the kitchen.

In July 2022, David, then 47, attended a Wimbledon match where he sat with other sports celebrities in the Royal Box. The soccer star accompanied Sandra, then 73, a big fan of the sport.
